Growing along nicely



Well except for escaping sheep here at the farm (damn fencing) things are going well. We are getting ready for our first show which is both nerve wracking and exciting. Need to decide if I am going to bathe the beasties or not beforehand. Any suggestions?

The NH sheep and wool festival was very informative to attend and I learnt a lot about skirting and fleeces. Enough to think about showing a couple of fleeces as well as showing a couple of sheep at the MA sheep and wool festival. It was also nice to see Nadine as well.

Anyway here are some pictures of the lambs. They are growing beautifully. All of the lambs are very playful and curious. 

New fencing is on it's way thanks to Premier and my mastercard and hopefully the permanet will be enough of a shock that they don't try and visit the neighbors any more. I'll give a full report on how the installation and use goes :)

  1. I've noticed you've mentioned your sweet and friendly lambs, all but one of which are rams. Thought I'd pass on an article on a friend's website I have found very helpful when tempted to love on my boys; it's: http://www.stonehavenfarm.com/love.html.
